induction burner
Electromagnetic cooking surface
An induction burner is a cooking surface that heats pots and pans through electromagnetic fields rather than flames or radiant heat.
The burner generates a magnetic field that induces electric currents directly in ferromagnetic cookware, heating the vessel itself while the cooking surface stays relatively cool.
Only compatible metals work—cast iron and magnetic stainless steel, not aluminum or copper.
The induction burner boiled water in half the time.
